To decrease the distance setting, push the Distance Set-

ting — Decrease button and release. Each time the button

is pushed, the distance setting decreases by one bar

(shorter).
If there is no vehicle ahead, the vehicle will maintain the

set speed. If a slower moving vehicle is detected in the

same lane, the DID displays the “Sensed Vehicle Indica-

tor” icon, and the system adjusts vehicle speed automati-

cally to maintain the distance setting, regardless of the set

speed.
The vehicle will then maintain the set distance until:

• The vehicle ahead accelerates to a speed above the set

speed.

• The vehicle ahead moves out of your lane or view of

the sensor.

• The distance setting is changed.

• The system disengages. (Refer to the information on

ACC Activation).

The maximum braking applied by ACC is limited; how-

ever, the driver can always apply the brakes manually, if

necessary.
NOTE:

The brake lights will illuminate whenever the

ACC system applies the brakes.
A Proximity Warning will alert the driver if ACC predicts

that its maximum braking level is not sufficient to

maintain the set distance. If this occurs, a visual alert

“BRAKE” will flash in the DID and a chime will sound

while ACC continues to apply its maximum braking

capacity.
